FY2020 Planning and Implementation Guide for Juvenile Justice and Mental Health Collaboration Program
This guide from The Council of State Governments Justice Center is intended to support recipients of Juvenile Justice and Mental Health Collaboration Program grants administered by the U.S. Department of Justice’s Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention.
